For its particular qualities, endoscopic ultrasound tomography ( EUT ) appears to be a suitable method for achieving better results in diagnostics of bile duct alterations than conventional UT. In 10 patients with enlarged common bile duct. EUT was carried out with three different prototypes (mechanical sector scan, ultrasound gastrofiberscope . Olympus/ Aloka ). The encouraging results suggest that the high discriminating investigational technique of EUT may be superior to conventional UT for finding common bile duct stones, probably for the differential diagnosis of biliary drainage problems caused by tumors, too.
由于其独特的特性，内镜超声断层扫描（EUT）似乎是一种比传统超声检查（UT）在胆管病变诊断中能取得更好结果的合适方法。对10例胆总管增粗的患者进行了EUT检查，使用了三种不同的原型设备（机械扇形扫描、超声纤维胃镜，奥林巴斯/阿洛卡）。令人鼓舞的结果表明，EUT的高分辨率检查技术在发现胆总管结石方面可能优于传统UT，可能在肿瘤引起的胆管引流问题的鉴别诊断中也是如此。
